Elopement & Running Away Safety Plan — Prevent Risk, Understand Triggers & Teach Safer Skills

About this printable

A practical parent safety checklist and skill-building worksheet for children who run away or elope. It helps families identify where and why running happens, recognize early warning signs, improve home and public-place safety, prepare identification information before outings, teach safer skills such as stopping, waiting, asking to leave, and staying close, and track patterns so parents can better understand what the child may be trying to reach, avoid, or communicate.
